My NEW adventure!
Published by February 19th, 2008 in adventure, announcements and business. 1 CommentWhere in the world is Couch Surfing Ori? That’s what the text message often says.

Again… spur of the moment! “When are you leaving? Or are you moving in?” “Hmmmm… I thought I’d leave.” “If you want to stay one more night, we can go to Magic Mountain… I was going to wake you up and ask… but I saw that you sent me an email at 5:30am- and I […]

Since then I had learned that you’re supposed […]

Rock Climbing near Chimney Rock with Couch 58
Published by October 17th, 2007 in adventure, business, photography and travel. 0 CommentsThe drive was not too long- 40 minutes to 70 minutes- to the Chimney Rock area. Again, gorgeous trees and mountains all the way. It ’s not just the scenery that one notices, but also the architecture. There are many old buildings, small communities, old cars, bridges, lakes, ponds, barns… It definitely looks different than […]
